The Cycle of Life
Youth unfolding
in the bright sunlight
blossoming in shade
‘tainted’ by age
becoming fragile
the delicacy of death
From an old Dahlia series, attempting to show the robust beauty of new life as it grows older, finally reaching the unsung beauty of death.
But beauty it still is

It paints a pretty picture, then Time takes the reigns of transformation
and muddles everything up, so much so that drooping becomes fashionable.
Good series, Ellen! 🙂 “Tuesday afternoon…”

Thank you so much, Uncle Tree. Actually I like the changes time makes– at least with flowers. Have a good evening, Ellen
